Is Fox News 'The Image of The Beast' as foretold in Biblical Revelations?

Is the number '666' equal to 'FOX?'

There are many articles online about the numerological value of FOX being equivalent to the number 666 and what that means, if anything.

Listed here are the main examples cited in popular culture and undeniably, the coincidence is rather surprising.

The Pythagorean numerological systems are among the oldest and the most
popular numerological systems on Earth. In the 6th century BCE, Greek mathematician and philosopher Pythagoras assigned numerical values to
each letter based on its position in the alphabet.

Example 1):
The number value is assigned by the position in the sequence of the Western alphabet using number formulas which are based on the numbers 1 to 9.

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
A B C D E F G H I
J K L M N O P Q R
S T U V W X Y Z

This method produces F O X = 666

Example 2):
To provide a unique numerical value to each letter, Jewish numerologists would multiply each set of 9 by a factor of 10. Sonosphere states, "The practice got little use in scripture, but a well-known example is in the New Testament book of Revelation, a highly symbolic text which the author presents as a record of a prophetic vision."
